Mai Tai

(The Original Formula - created by Victor J. Bergeron in 1944)
2 oz. of 17-year old J. Wray & Nephew Rum
1 Lime, Juiced
1/2 oz. Holland DeKuyper Orange Curaçao
1/4 oz. Trader Vic's Rock Candy Syrup
1/2 oz. French Garier Orgeat Syrup
Combine ingredients and shake vigorously. Strain into a
rocks glass
over shaved ice. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and 1/2 the lime rind.
- I wanted to use the original recipe, but ingredient brands can be
(and will probably have to be) substituted. I would recommend Appleton Estate Jamaican
Dark Rum, as it looks to be the descendant of the J.Wray, as it is made by J. Wray and
Nephew of Kingston, Jamaica.
